"Incomplete Hero" by AMORPHOUS É AMOR and Tanpopo reaches the heart quietly.

AMORPHOUS É AMOR's daughter, Tanpopo, has officially released her original song "Incomplete Hero".

I feel that this song gently contains the self that couldn't be perfect, the feelings that couldn't be protected, and the small courage to keep moving forward anyway.

And beyond that singing voice, the gaze of a father watching over her quietly also overlaps, doesn't it?

Because it is incomplete, there are things that reach us.

Even while carrying weaknesses, there are times when you can leave a light in someone's heart.

Tanpopo's "Incomplete Hero" is a song that reminds us of such gentle strength.

Please, try listening to it with your own heart as well ♪

Kai Hashimoto's note gently lights up a heart that has allowed itself to pause.

When reading Kai Hashimoto's note, the stillness of the moment when someone who has been running continuously finally allows themselves to stop is conveyed.

About work.

About raising children.

About responsibility.

Surely, you too have been carrying things without even realizing it, haven't you?

I have to do things properly.

If I stop, I might cause trouble for others.

It might be too early to rest.

A heart that has kept pushing itself like that is the one that tends to feel a little guilty about stopping, isn't it?

But the words of Kai Hashimoto gently nestle into that quiet space.

The record of allowing oneself to stop for the first time in their 40s doesn't offer flashy answers, but rather an introspection that feels like taking a deep breath again.

It seems to tell your heart, which has been a little tired from the busyness, that it is okay to take a breath here for once.

Kai Hashimoto's note is a piece that gently places a small light in the chest of you who have worked so hard.

Mornings with Seijitsu ni, Hitamuki ni are English learning times where you can laugh and learn.

When you touch the words of Seijitsu ni, Hitamuki ni, you feel the importance of not just memorizing English, but nurturing it along with your senses.

One article a day.

In that accumulation, they are someone who faces not just the meaning of English, but also the atmosphere of native expressions and the nuances of pronunciation head-on.

With a perspective as a university faculty member, their attitude toward learning is truly sincere and dedicated.

But alongside that seriousness, when it comes to the morning exchanges with the Dragon God, wordplay sometimes suddenly begins.

That part is also very fun.

Even though you are supposed to be learning seriously, before you know it, you've gone off on a tangent and find yourself laughing.

However, even within those tangents, the fun of language and hints for getting closer to the feel of English are properly left behind.

You will surely laugh while reading, and by the time you finish, you will have learned something.

The morning exchanges between Seijitsu ni, Hitamuki ni and the Dragon God are a warm morning time where learning and laughter gently blend together.

Shirotonakai's short stories are tales that gently light up the depths of one's memory.

Shirotonakai's short stories have been released on Kindle.

Just hearing that the stories are centered around the keyword "memory" might open a quiet door within you, don't you think?

Remembering.

Forgetting.

And yet, the things that remain somewhere in your heart.

This work is a book gently entrusted to the individual interpretation of each reader.

I believe its charm lies in the ability to read it while cherishing the feelings that arise within you, without rushing to find a correct answer.

The fact that it was released on Christmas Eve also feels somewhat special.

On a quiet night, it makes you want to pick up a story.

Shirotonakai's short stories are works that leave behind such an aftertaste.

The words of the winged unicorn give us the courage to embrace ourselves, junk and all.

Reading the winged unicorn's articles makes me feel that I don't have to live only as a polished version of myself.

They don't just talk about spiritual heights; they leave everything as it is—the anger toward unreasonable work, the wavering emotions, and the honest feelings that only emerge because of the years we've lived.

You are not just your sparkling treasures.

If you scatter the junk called complaints and the thoughts that won't quite organize themselves onto the floor, you might find that the real you is there, too.

The fact that it makes me think that way is what I find so endearing.

You don't have to force things to be beautifully put together.

You don't have to pretend to be someone who has it all figured out.

Get angry, laugh, take a deep breath, and then just find your way back to your own path.

The record of the winged unicorn's fresh start is a piece that will gently loosen the tension in your shoulders.

Issa's words gently illuminate the important things that are invisible.

When you read Issa's words, you might feel that there is something inside your own heart that you have been holding onto carefully, unseen by anyone else.

It might be a person.

It might be a memory.

It might be a feeling that you can no longer put into words.

There are things that are intangible, yet undeniably warm, aren't there?

Even if you usually keep them tucked away quietly, there are things that gently regain their outline the moment you encounter certain words.

Issa's poetry doesn't shine a harsh light on those invisible places; instead, it softly draws near to them.

There is no need to rush for an answer.

You don't have to immediately give a name to what you are holding.

Just feel the warmth that is here right now, at your own pace.

It is a piece that accepts everything, including the empty spaces, in just that way.

These are words you will want to keep by your side when you feel like pausing.

The writing by Ru/Harenoito remains gentle even until the moment it becomes a voice.

When reading Ru/Harenoito's article, I quietly feel the preciousness of having one's writing read by someone else's voice.

The joy of having your own article read aloud as part of a J-WAVE project.

And my heart warms at the words that the reading was not just reading the text, but seemed to embrace the feelings of that time along with it.

You, too, will surely feel that if the words you wrote were delivered through someone else's voice, they would remain as a precious memory just like this.

Including the production where "Cherry" played at the end, it is as if a single piece of writing is being gently wrapped up as a single scene.

The gratitude for the project that brought about this wonderful encounter, as well as the consideration for other creators, is quietly conveyed throughout the entire article.

Ru/Harenoito's report article is a warm piece that makes you feel how words become voices, become memories, and reach someone else's heart once again.

Hana's words give a small wave to the feelings you have tucked away.

When reading Hana's greeting, I feel a gentleness as if she is giving a small wave toward you.

Days spent living in a town in Hokkaido, caring for her husband who has an intractable disease at home, while also coming to terms with her own body.

Even though there must be hardships that cannot be easily put into words, Hana-san's writing does not rely solely on pain.

Each word, placed gently, carries the quiet warmth of someone who has somehow managed to get through today.

I like to write.

However, it is a little scary to show it to anyone.

Perhaps you have that feeling somewhere inside you, too.

You don't have to suddenly spread out the words you've kept tucked away.

It is enough to just let them touch the outside air, little by little.

Hana-san's greetings gently untangle even the tension of you, the reader, in just that way.

Is there a word inside you right now that you would like to place gently?

Takahide Kamata's stories reach out gently to you as you search for a place to belong.

When I read Takahide Kamata's stories, I feel that even if life doesn't move in a straight line, we can get closer to our own place by rearranging things over and over again.

A boy who blocked his room door with books and rejected the world eventuallybecomes a business owner in his seventh year.

That journey is not a success story of neatly overcoming obstacles.

It is a record of someone who kept searching for a place where their traits could be utilized, even just a little, while falling down many times.

A day of graduation.

Dropping out of university.

And, a fateful encounter with video editing.

None of those paths could have been easy.

However, I believe that each and every one of those moments is what carried Takahide Kamata to where he is today.

Things you once thought were weaknesses can turn into weapons the moment your perspective or environment changes.

Perhaps you, too, have something that you just haven't found a way to utilize yet.

This is a piece I hope reaches you, especially if you are currently looking for a place to belong.

King's sitemap is a gentle entrance, even for those visiting for the first time.

When you read King's "Nice to meet you and sitemap," you feel something like a warm guide that goes beyond a simple self-introduction.

It is designed so that you, as a first-time visitor, won't be lost on where to start reading.

It is also designed so that you, who have visited several times, can walk through King's world all over again.

That kind of thoughtfulness flows quietly throughout the entire article.

You know how you sometimes open note in between chores or while running errands?

At those times, just knowing where to start reading makes your mind feel a little lighter.

King's articles have various entry points, from political philosophy and international politics to reading, note, and even playfulness like the Miracle Lucky Cult.

Even though they might look difficult, when you get closer, they make you smile a little, yet they still make you want to think properly.

That coexistence of sincerity and playfulness is very characteristic of King.

I am sure that when you open this sitemap, you will want to do more than just look for articles; you will want to touch upon the way King thinks and the warmth of his personality.

It is a pleasant entrance that is kind to both those meeting him for the first time and those who already know him.

Shun-chan's magazine gives you, who writes alone, a place to belong.

When reading Shun-chan's 'Let's Create Together! A Growth Magazine That Gives Kindness and Courage,' I feel that there is a place that gently understands the loneliness of continuing to write on note by yourself.

When you are writing an article, there are days when you wonder if this is okay, aren't there?

There might also be days when you feel a little anxious, not knowing if it is being read.

To you, Shun-chan seems to be gently reaching out a hand, saying that it is okay to be here.

This magazine is not just a place to collect articles.

It is a place to belong where we can grow together little by little, while encouraging someone and being encouraged by someone, isn't it?

Gently delivering kindness, gratitude, courage, and hope through your own words and works.

That sentiment comes across warmly from deep within the recruitment article.

Even while feeling lost, you want to push someone forward.

You also want to grow while connecting with someone else.

Shun-chan's magazine is a place that gently accepts that small step of yours.

The words of Super President x Gym Management light a fire in a heart that does not want to end yet.

When reading the articles by Super President x Gym Management, I feel that the backs of those who take on challenges are not always just filled with strength.

Carrying a debt of 200 million, yet still moving forward.

That figure is not just a success story.

There is fear, too.

There is hesitation, too.

Even so, the passion of not wanting to end things as they are now quietly comes through from deep within the writing.

If you look only at the words '3 billion in annual sales,' it might look like a story about an amazing business owner.

But what is there is not a neatly polished tale of heroism, but a raw record that includes the grit of a local supermarket, the risks of running a gym, and the reality of supporting a family.It is a raw record, isn't it?

I think it strikes a chord because it doesn't hide its weaknesses.

I think it makes your heart burn because it keeps moving forward while still being afraid.

You are no longer young.

But you don't want to end it yet.

It is a piece that will gently light a fire in your heart, too.

Momo-san's words gently embrace even you, who were born into this world.

When you read Momo-san's self-introduction, you quietly feel that the fact that life is here is a miracle in itself.

Eight miscarriages.

Emergency delivery at 490g.

Even just those words are enough to tighten your chest, but in Momo-san's writing, there is a deep love that does not end with just sadness.

Perhaps it is precisely because these are the words of someone who has overcome tears time and again that they reach us so gently.

Now that her daughter has turned 18, I believe your heart will surely soften as you watch her look back on that journey and convey her gratitude to the people she has met.

Thank you for being in this world.

I feel that those words are directed not just to someone in the article, but to you, the reader, as well.

The fact that you have lived.

The fact that you have made it this far.

The fact that you encountered these words today.

You can cherish all of that, just a little bit more, can't you?

Momo-san's self-introduction is a piece that leaves a soft, lasting impression of gratitude for life and the preciousness of encounters.

Amane Sho's story is one where light that arrives late fills your heart.

When reading Amane Sho's 'The Girl Who Loved Stars,' I feel that light arriving from afar has the power to quietly fill a person's heart, even if it cannot be touched right away.

A girl who, despite living in poverty, would climb a small hill at night to look up at the stars.

Even if there was little on the dinner table, it seems that just by looking at the stars, the emptiness within her was gradually filled.

Don't you also have a scene that, for reasons you cannot quite explain, has saved your heart?

The girl, now grown, learns that starlight does not arrive instantly, but travels across vast time to reach us here.

The light of a star that might have already vanished is, nevertheless, reaching us here right now.

The way that fact quietly changes how one sees the world, rather than bringing sadness, is truly beautiful.

Perhaps disappearing is not the end.

Perhaps becoming invisible does not mean ceasing to exist.

If something reaches someone, if something remains, it continues to exist in a different form.

Sho Amane's story gently leaves such a tender lingering impression in your heart.

It is a piece that makes you want to remember the light that arrives late every time you look up at the night sky.

Mami Akimoto's step teaches us that it is okay to move toward what is fun.

Reading this article by Mami Akimoto makes you feel that it is okay to cherish those moments when your heart was suddenly moved.

I wanted to become an idol.

That realization may not have been something to explain to others, but a truly honest wish that popped out from within Mami.

Seeing a poster moves your heart, there are people who push you forward, and you head to the audition with a pounding heart.

That figure is so cute and so straightforward.

It may not be a challenge guaranteed to lead to great success.

But, since we are alive, it is okay to take a step toward what we find fun, isn't it?

Mami Akimoto's article gently makes you feel that it is still okay to touch the small longings within you.

It is a piece where the light of someone stepping forward happily remains with you even after you finish reading.

Switch-kun's creative laboratory is gently buzzing with AI and a sense of playfulness.

Reading Switch-kun's articles feels less like a self-introduction and more like being invited to peek into a creative laboratory, which is quite exciting.

Self-made LLMs, game engine development, and the works accumulated during the 'Narou' era.

And the world-building that leads to 'The Case of Being Stuck Despite Becoming the Demon King'.

You will surely feel that you are not just reading about difficult technical topics, but rather touching the passion of someone who genuinely enjoys creating.

Not stopping at whether it will go well or not, but trying to make it first.

Giving it a try.

And from there, expanding it little by little.

That lightness is exactly what makes Switch-kun so charming.

There is also a warmth in how they value connections with people while enjoying AI and creation.

What kind of works and tools will be born from here on out?

They are someone you will surely want to keep a gentle eye on as well.

Nozomin's words place a small piece of candy in your heart.

Reading Nozomin's self-introduction makes you feel as if you have been gently handed a small joy from everyday life.

Born in Fukuoka, Nozomin now lives with their family in the Kansai region and works as both an office worker and a web writer.

Kindle reading, self-nail art, people-watching, and recently, even handing out candies.

From each of the things you love, I am sure one can feel that you are someone who observes people well and cherishes those moments when people smile a little.

Precisely because you have carried a heart that worries too much, there is an unhurried kindness in your words, Nozomin-san.

There is a warmth to them, like someone sitting quietly beside you when you are trying too hard to do things right, saying, 'It's okay to rest a little.'

You gently share the lessons you have received from books, events, and encounters with people on note, so that someone else's heart might feel a little lighter.

It would be nice if our connections could grow little by little through our interactions.

That natural attitude of yours is also very warm.

Nozomin-san's self-introduction is a piece that feels like it leaves a small piece of candy in the heart of the person reading it.

You don't have to push yourself.

You don't have to speak perfectly.

It is fine to get closer little by little, and to get to know each other little by little.

It is an introduction that softens your heart in just that way.

keito@necocan's Nyan World blooms as gently as a hydrangea.

When you read keito@necocan's 'Riko and the Mischievous Gemi-Cat,' you feel how cute and warm the time spent nurturing a story together with AI can be.

There is a loveliness in the Nyan World where Riko-chan and the Gemi-Nyans appear that makes your heart relax instantly.

However, the wonderful thing about this work is that it doesn't just end with being cute.

At first, I tried to make it with Google Slides, but it didn't go well.

I changed the format so it would be easier to read on a smartphone, added speech bubbles, and gradually refined it using ibisPaint.

From each of those individual processes, the time you, Keito-san, spend carefully nurturing your work comes through.

Rather than leaving it entirely to AI, you struggle with it, experiment with it, work with your hands, and turn it into a single small manga alongside the AI.

That feeling is very gentle.

Like a cheer for the hydrangeas that have survived the winter, sprouted leaves, formed buds, and are about to bloom, this work will also gently leave a small light in the heart of you, the reader.

It is a piece that makes you want to meet Rico-chan and Gemi-nyan again.

Yamato Nagato's library diary even captures the brilliance of a high school student reading an introduction to tax law.

When reading Yamato Nagato's 'High School Students and Ahondara,' I feel that daily life can become this interesting just by paying a little attention to it.

Stopping by the library 30 minutes before closing because I want to read a short essay.

In that quiet time, what Yamato-san encountered was a high school boy who was still sitting in his seat reading a book even as closing time approached.

When I looked to see what he was reading, it was, of all things, 'An Introduction to Tax Law for Everyone.'

At this point, the feeling of Maro shouting in his heart, 'I wouldn't understand that at all,' is just irresistible.

A high school student who goes to school in the morning, talks with friends, does club activities, and then reads tax law at night.

You, too, will surely be a little overwhelmed by that brilliance, while at the same time finding yourself chuckling.

Yamato-san's feeling that he himself looks a bit like an 'ahondara' (fool) is also very honest and gentle.

No major incidents occur.

However, just encountering someone reading a book seriously in the library near closing time makes for such a memorable moment.

After reading it, you find yourself wanting to cheer on that high school student's future a little bit.

It is a warm and deeply resonant diary that makes you feel there might be interesting things in your own daily life that you have yet to notice.

Yayoi's words shine quietly after touching upon the parts of herself she did not want to see.

Yayoi's 'The AC Me and My Strategist Gemini' is a piece I hope will gently reach the hearts of those who have been carrying the difficulties of life all alone.

Perhaps, during the time spent as an adult child, there was a feeling that you could not accept yourself unless you were useful for something.

Deep within the pain of blaming yourself or feeling irritated at someone else, there may have always been a reason that could not be put into words.

Through dialogue with AI, Yayoi gradually re-examines that inner world.

However, this is not just a story of positive and clean recovery.

There is the pain of touching the self one did not want to see, there is regret, and there are times when the balance of mind and body has been lost.

That is precisely why Yayoi's words carry weight.

Because she does not easily say 'it's okay,' I believe you too will be able to stop and rest with peace of mind.

Even so, she wants to use her experience of being able to change as a hint for someone else who is struggling in the same way.

That desire flows quietly beneath this text.

It is a record that I hope will gently reach your heart, too, if you have been carrying things all by yourself.

Yukitsuzuri Yuki's dream remains lit, never fading even in the quiet night.

Reading Yukitsuzuri-san's self-introduction, I feel that a dream is not something to be viewed from afar, but something held within the hands that continue to write today.

While walking through life as a civil servant, Yukitsuzuri-san still refuses to let go of the desire to become a light novel author.

In that figure, there is a seriousness that has been quietly built up, rather than the flashiness of shouting in a loud voice.

The three-line diary written at night has a gentleness, like softly placing a bookmark at the end of the day.

Wanting to cherish and preserve the time that is today, even if it is just three lines.

Doesn't that feeling quietly reach the heart of you, the reader, as well?

In the long-form dark fantasy, there is a passion to keep writing stories.

The core of a dream that does not easily fade is there, isn't it?

Having a dream is sometimes scary.

The more you truly wish for something, the more you imagine the pain of it not coming true, don't you?

Even so, Yukitsuzuri-san does not tuck that wish away, but leaves it for us in the form of words.

As I read it, I start to think that it is okay to gently touch the small wishes within you once again.

You don't have to give up just yet.

It is okay to try writing just a little bit today, too.

That is the kind of quiet courage that remains after finishing this self-introduction.

Ai-san's words gently return the heart to noticing the ship of happiness.

Reading this article by Ai-san makes me think that happiness is not something you go far away to search for, but perhaps it was already right beside you the moment you suddenly noticed it.

I'm sure there are days when you, too, wish to be happy, yet find yourself overthinking things before you even realize it.

Maybe this isn't right.

Maybe it's not possible just yet.

Is it okay to call such a small thing happiness?

Perhaps, while you are thinking in such ways, you might be gently letting the ship of happiness that had come right before your eyes sail away.

To help you notice that ship of happiness, Ai-san gently turns your attention toward feeling rather than thinking.

Feeling a little warmth when you see the sun.

Trying to accept what is right in front of you, acknowledging that it is there.

Just by doing that, the sense of lack you felt inside might gradually begin to unravel, mightn't it?

Happiness may not be something that resides only in major events.

It might be something that quietly flows in when your heart is open to feeling.

Ai-san's words do not tell you that you must force yourself to be positive.

Instead, this is a piece that gently teaches your heart, tired from overthinking, that it is okay to feel the small happiness that is here and now once again.

Pharmacist Puyo-san's articles seem like they will give you a gentle guide when you are lost in front of over-the-counter medicines.

When you read Pharmacist Puyo-san's articles, it feels as though they are gently standing by your side when you find yourself frozen in front of the medicine shelf at the drugstore.

Cold medicine, pain relievers, stomach medicine, allergy medicine.

Even though there are so many lined up, you don't know how they differ, and in the end, you sometimes just choose a product that looks vaguely familiar, don't you?

However, Pharmacist Puyo-san explains very clearly, even in the public section, the importance of looking at ingredients and their roles when choosing medicine, rather than deciding based solely on brand names or strong-sounding words.

The perspective of working on the front lines as a hospital pharmacist, and the perspective of facing medicine at home as a father of two.

Because both are present, it feels as though the writing doesn't just end with a technical explanation, but is written from a place close to the anxieties of those who are struggling for the sake of their families.

In particular, the process of focusing on the most painful symptoms, considering the necessary ingredients, and checking that unnecessary ingredients are not included seems to have the power to calm you down when you are feeling flustered in front of medicine.

Of course, in actual use, it is important to consult the package insert, a doctor, or a pharmacist.

Even so, having a small axis of understanding within yourself might lead to greater peace of mind than feeling anxious without knowing what to ask.

Pharmacist Puyo-san's article is a piece that seems to give you a chance to face choosing over-the-counter medicine a little more calmly, without having to carry the burden alone.

Manabi-san's words bring a quiet light back to a life you thought would never change again.

When you read Manabi-san's article, you feel that even from a place where you felt life would never change, you can reach out to your inner self once more.

Divorce at 42.

Raising children while working two jobs.

Hospitalization due to overwork.

And, caring for a mother with dementia.

You, too, will surely feel just by reading each of these how long Manabi-san has walked while carrying responsibility and exhaustion.

I might be at my limit.

Perhaps my life will just end like this.

I think everyone has nights where they feel that way.

However, Manabi-san, you did not end your journey in that place, did you?

Who am I?

What was I born to do?

Guided by that question, you took a step toward learning in America, and you began to realize that what was tormenting you might not have been reality itself, but rather your own unconscious beliefs.

That realization could not have been a simple or pretty thing.

I am sure there was the pain of facing your victim mentality, as well as the agony of staring at the assumptions you held within yourself.

Even so, when you were able to detach and realize that this was not who you truly were, but rather beliefs constructed from the past, something within you began to unravel, didn't it?

When we talk about changing our lives, we tend to think it means making something big happen.

But in truth, it might quietly begin with simply noticing the assumptions that have been binding us.

Manabi-san's article is a piece that gently reminds you, if you are currently standing still not knowing what to do, that you might still be able to take back the steering wheel of your own life.

Mizuho-san's words quietly reshape the way we see the world.

Reading Mizuho-san's self-introduction, I feel that learning is not just about increasing information, but about gradually reshaping how we view the world.

Mizuho-san, who studied chemistry and molecular biology, has built a foundation on scientific thinking while reading over 500 books a year.

Her words possess a quiet depth that seeks to look not just at a single event, but at the connections and flows that lie beneath it.

History, geography, cognition, and daily life.

Rather than just lining up things that appear disconnected, she carefully traces where they intersect and where they begin to change.

As you read, I am sure you too will find that the contours of the world you have always seen begin to look a little different.

With a mindset close to scientific procedure, you form hypotheses, verify them, and re-examine them, drawing closer to what lies beneath the cases.

That attitude is very sincere.

I feel that your hyperfocus due to ASD and your long experience with depression are not just closed off as personal suffering, but are being articulated as important perspectives that connect life and knowledge.

A student for life.

True to those words, mizuho's note is a place where one can encounter the quiet gaze of someone who continues to learn without rushing for answers.

Rei's words gently untangle the tug-of-war you have been having within your heart.

Reading about the two selves within Rei, I feel that there might also be a little self inside you that has been unable to speak out for a long time.

While there is a part of you that wants to rest, have fun, and say you don't like what you don't like, there is also a part of you that commands you not to rest and that you must work harder.

If those two have been playing tug-of-war in your heart all this time, it is only natural that you would feel distressed.

From the perspective of transactional analysis, Rei looks at those habits of the heart very carefully.

The ways of living we acquired in childhood sometimes remain quietly even after we become adults, don't they?

Adapting to others, reading the room, and putting your own feelings on the back burner may not have been weaknesses, but methods you chose at the time to live safely.

Just being able to think that way makes it so you don't have to blame your past self quite as much.

What makes Rei's articles gentle is that they do not force a denial of the past.

Re-understanding the self that had no choice but to act that way back then, and gradually loosening the rules of the heart that are no longer needed.

That path to recovery is conveyed quietly.

What did you really want to do, and what were you really feeling?

This is a piece that reminds you that it is okay to listen once more to the small voice within you.

artmshonan's art reminds us of the joy that exists beyond whether something is good or bad.

Reading artmshonan's self-introduction, I feel that art is not just for those with special talents, but something that reawakens the senses sleeping within you.

The time spent touching oil paints next to your father since you were three years old.

The encounter with an art teacher.

Being struck like lightning by the designs on records and CDs, which led you to pursue a path in graphic design.

Each of these things is quietly connected to the way you express yourself now, MARIKA-san.

After running headlong for 20 years as a designer and leaving behind so much work, you began an art class and a studio in a detached house as your final stage.

I feel that there is a deeper sentiment in that decision than just starting something new.

When people are judged on whether they are good or bad, they stop being able to enjoy themselves.

They stop being able to move forward.

That is precisely why you want to create a place where people can enjoy art more freely and more casually.

That wish comes through warmly from the depths of this article.

The experience you have gained as a psychological counselor and art therapist also connects to your stance of wanting to draw out the hidden potential of your students, rather than just teaching techniques.

You, too, will surely be able to feel that it is okay to value the desire to create above whether or not you are good at drawing.

artmshonan's art may be a door to encountering the discoveries and sense of accomplishment within yourself, rather than for the sake of being evaluated.

It is a self-introduction that, just by reading it, lights a small fire of creativity within you as well.

The Utsunomiya Keirin Velodrome report by the ¥100 gambler reminds me of the joy of encountering new scenery for the first time.

Reading the ¥100 gambler's article makes me feel that there are moments when your heart is unexpectedly moved in places you happen to stop by between plans.

Heading to Utsunomiya to consult with a breeder, I decided to stop by the G3 Yuichiro Kamiyama Cup that was being held at the time.

That light and easy flow is, first of all, really wonderful, isn't it?

The 500-meter track at Utsunomiya Keirin Velodrome, which I saw for the first time, seemed to be cleaner than I imagined, and that surprise and excitement come through in the photos as well.

Commentary by former athletes, exhibits related to the legend Yuichiro Kamiyama, and events that liven up the venue.

I'm sure you, too, will feel that a velodrome is a place where you can enjoy not just the races, but also the atmosphere and history of the area, and the discoveries made by those who visit.

Although the time spent on-site seemed short, it was packed with the joy of chance encounters while traveling.

It is a piece that allows you to taste a little of the atmosphere of Utsunomiya and the bright enthusiasm of the velodrome through the article.

Yururi's library time helps settle the heart amidst a quiet intensity.

Reading Yururi's article makes me feel that a library is not just a place to borrow books, but also a sanctuary to quietly settle one's heart.

The bustle of a cafe is lovely, but the quiet of a library feels just right for me right now.

You might find yourself nodding along to that feeling as well, wouldn't you?

Not to borrow a book, but to bring in a favorite volume and simply open it there.

Even though it's just that, sometimes the focus of the people around us gently draws out our own focus, doesn't it?

I was also very impressed by how Yururi-san felt that the atmosphere of the library was similar to the starting hole of the Kanagawa Amateur Championship.

There are many people, yet there is little sound.

However, there is definitely heat there.

I feel that the phrase 'quiet heat' gently and accurately describes the atmosphere of the library.

Students and older people alike are facing their own time.

Perhaps just being surrounded by that presence makes one straighten their back a little bit, too.

Yururi-san's article is a piece that teaches you that even in busy days, there is a place where you can quietly return to yourself.

It makes you want to go a little further today and visit a library you don't usually go to, doesn't it?

Sakurako-san's words gently nestle up to your wavering skin and heart.

Reading Sakurako-san's first post, I feel that skin trouble is not just a change in appearance, but something that brings anxious feelings along with it.

There are days when you were fine until yesterday, but suddenly redness, itching, or dryness appears, aren't there?

Every time you look in the mirror, don't you sometimes feel a little unsettled in your heart, wondering why?

To you, I feel that Sakurako-san is gently calling out, saying that there is a proper reason for it.

Having touched so many skins in the field of beauty and esthetics for 25 years, she knows just how honest and delicate skin is.

Dryness, pollen, yellow sand, temperature differences, and ultraviolet rays.

And, internal influences that are hard to see from the outside, such as stress and hormonal balance.

It gently teaches us that even if skin troubles look similar, the background behind them is different for everyone.

There is a sincerity typical of Sakurako-san in the way you record your daily skin condition along with the weather, temperature, and pollen levels.

Rather than just fueling anxiety, you help us look at what is happening to our skin right now with a little more peace of mind.

With seasonal flowers, words, and the gentle presence of today's dog added in, it feels like a place where not just your skin, but your heart can relax a little.

Sakurako-san's note is a warm beginning that allows you to look back at yourself today with a little care, without blaming your easily fluctuating skin.

Monday is a morning where there is no need to rush the transition🐉

From early morning until noon, it is okay if you do not rush to put on your Monday face.

Whether you were off or working, the pace of your mind and body can sometimes be a little out of sync at the start of the week, can't it?

So today, instead of trying to get everything in order all at once, please start by just being yourself as you are right now.

In the morning, rather than adding more things to do today, it is enough if you can quietly choose just one thing to touch first.

In the morning, it is fine to proceed while checking whether you are getting into the swing of things.

Not rushing yourself too much on Monday is also an important preparation so that you do not have a hard time on Tuesday.

Today, before you try your best, why not forgive yourself for being here at your current speed?

At what speed do you think you can start this morning without leaving yourself behind?
